Suicide Mistaken for Halloween Decoration
FREDERICA, Del.

The apparent suicide of a woman found hanging from a tree went unreported for hours because passers-by thought the body was a Halloween decoration, authorities said.

The 42-year-old woman used rope to hang herself across the street from some homes on a moderately busy road late Tuesday or early Wednesday, state police said.

The body, suspended about 15 feet above the ground, could be easily seen from passing vehicles.

State police spokesman Cpl. Jeff Oldham and neighbors said people noticed the body at breakfast time Wednesday but dismissed it as a holiday prank. Authorities were called to the scene more than three hours later.

"They thought it was a Halloween decoration," Fay Glanden, wife of Mayor William Glanden, told The (Wilmington) News Journal.

"It looked like something somebody would have rigged up," she said.

With so much apathy in the world and the observation skills of Ray Charles, its surprising she was discovered before Xmas.

That reminds me of the movie Heathers.

Heather McNamara: Suicide is a private thing.
Veronica Sawyer: You're throwing your life away to become a statistic on U. S. fucking A. Today; that's about the least private thing I can think of.

Incredibly so...

[shermo]

At least she'll be remembered...

Nothing sad about it. She took her own life. Boo hoo.

[lesbodojo]

I think it is real, actually. Is it an urban legend? Someone said that earlier in this thread. Life imitates urban legend? or Urban legend imitates life?

[Hollywood Horwitz]

this happens every year? never heard of this before....

[LaurieX]

wow that is crazy!

[pornpf69]

thx for sharing!!!

[Hey You . . . I Know You!]

that sad, sad she decided to hang herself that no noticed for three hours

Well, I feel bad because after the police took her down, I didn't know she wasn't a prop, so I hung her up (from a tree) in my front yard. Nobody said anything, so she has been hanging up now for a while. If nobody says anything, I might just make it through Halloween.

[lesbodojo]

this happens every year? never heard of this before....

Neither have I! That's super fucked up if it does...

[lesbodojo]

I know, right. It takes a lot these days for the average person to investigate strange behavior in their hood. This story reminded me not to ever become (too) desensitized.

Went to a friend's wake 6 years ago... but he was up for 16 hours on his parents front lawn. Happens each and every year... north, south, east, and west.

A perfect timing for her to commit suicide.
